Event Description

The event has been changed to an Online SEMINAR and STUDY TOUR on Aquaculture, Biorefinery and Modern Circular Production Systems

INBIOM - National Bioresource Network, AAU Energy in Esbjerg, AQUA-COMBINE and GO GRASS H2020 projects invite you to 4 hours of top scientists and industrial partners sharing their knowledge and expertise about aquaculture, on-shore production loops, and circular economy. Furthermore, students, companies, and project partners will be encouraged to participate in “online speed dating” sessions as a part of the very important development of professional networks and research groups for future project consortiums.

We invite all to participate in an online study tour visiting a state-of-the-art Recirculating Aquaponics System (RAS) production unit producing 125 tons of fish with subsequently plant production for high-value products, nutrient removal, and water cleaning. We will end the event with four panel debates and discussions about the four important pillars of on-shore aquaculture and production systems: Biomass Cultivation and Production, Processing and Refining, Utilization of High Value Compounds, Sustainability and the Road Ahead.

REGISTRATION for the event by sending name and company name by email to ebj@et.aau.dk
